Right. We now have an excuse. Winnoch2 has forsaken the bright lights of Glasgow for the...er...bright lights of Belfast.

Shall we go for a drink on Saturday? (That'd be the 12th, just in case this gets a bit confusing)

Gnomon - time to move on

I'm afraid I'm going to beg out of this one - I've been coming down with something since yesterday, and the thought of coughing my way down to the Crown is distinctly unpleasant..Sorry to bail at the last minute!
